From the creator of 'Lost' and 'Alias', J.J. Abrams, Star Trek is part prequel, part reboot and all action! One of 2009's best blockbusters, this sensational movie captures the series' classic sci-fi spirit but ramps up the spectacle - you've never seen Kirk and Spock quite like this before!

A New Vision - J.J. Abrams' vision was not only to create a Star Trek that was a bigger, more action-packed spectacle, but also to make the spectacle feel real. Every aspect of production-from unique locations to the use of classic Hollywood camera tricks-was guided by this overall objective.

Gag Reel-Bloopers featuring the entire principal cast.

1Good Film but VERY Bad Star Trek

As a Film in and of its self this is a good even great film. The acting is good to great with ZQ being as good as I hoped he would be as spock. Karl Urban great as Bones. I was'nt to sure if chris pine would be any good as Kirk as he had some HUGE boots to fill but he does very well. The rest of the cast are good as well. The SFX are very good too.

SO why am I only giveing this 1 star. Because as a Star Trek Film its THE WORST one ever. As anyone who is any kind of fan of star trek will tell you IF you change the past as they have done you change the future. There are no such things are alt time lines in ST. So in this film they have wiped out the past 40 odd years of trek as we know it. IE Everything thats ever happened in The original series, TNG, DS9, Voyager and all the 10 films has not and now never will happen. Thats not a reboot thats a total reformat.

I wonder which franchise they will reformat next now they have runined both James Bond and Star Trek.

5Amazing Movie

I saw this at the cinema and have to say I was convinced I'd hate it. I'm a fan of the original series (not really a fan of the spin offs) and was intrigued by the idea of a new Trek movie with up-to-date effects but the idea of other actors playing my favourite characters was jut plain insanity. There's no way I would like this movie but I had to see it just to confirm how ridiculous the idea of it was.

I left the cinema astounded. Not only were the battle scenes literally out of this world but the actor's played the original crew perfectly and in most cases looked the part as well. I'd have to highlight Karl Urban as Bones and Zak as Spock as being almost perfect replicas of the original characters.

5Taking us out into the new frontier........

I should probably start by confirming that I've been a Star Trek fan since I was a child in the 1980s, starting with Star Trek: The Next Generation and then moving onto to everything else that Star Trek had to offer.

Which is a long way of saying I'm familiar with the good and the bad of past Star Trek films and TV shows.

And yes, I thought this film was superb - an out and out action-adventure of epic proportions, with a visceral style and special effects to make your eyes burst out of their sockets. Director J.J Abrams has fashioned a film that actually succeeds in being a MOVIE, and not a big budget TV episode - with pitch perfect casting of all the crew and performances that honour and respect the original crew.

But there are also huge changes - the creation of a new timeline and the death of and destruction of key elements of the original series have very much divided fandom. And while I fully understand those feelings and the basis of them, I do not share them.

Once again, for the first time since 1966 we will be going out there into the UNKNOWN!! The future is now a blank canvas and is now the fertile ground for hopefully many new adventures to come. While I understand that upsets some, I find it to be the very point of Star Trek - 'To boldy go....'

There is also, somewhat of a lack of depth, allegory or philosphical undertones but since this is a reintroduction and rebuilding of the foundations, frankly, I can wait for the sequel for that - this was about showing the formation of the crew, nothing else and it still has an emotional depth severely lacking from the last couple of films.

It remains to be seen what the sequels, now confirmed, will add to this first act in a new story - but I, for one, look forward to it with enthusiasm!

2Very pretty. That's about it.

Very pretty to look at. The effects, costumes and set design are awesome. Really, really awesome! But the story is no great shakes and the music score is totally annoying and repetitive. The acting is... so-so. Quinto is good as Spock. Oh, and Kirk seems to have this odd, constant deux-ex-machina thing going on throughout the whole film. It all feels a little bit... flat, really. A bit hollow, uninspired and dull. Rent, or borrow a friend's copy first - make sure you try before you buy. It isn't anywhere near as good as 'Wrath of Khan' or 'First Contact' and you could be disappointed.

2And now for something totally different.......

Which is exactly what this film is. As a Sci-Fi Action film I really did enjoy this, and the acting was top-notch. I thought some of the characters were portrayed excellently, especially Bones and Spock.

As a Star Trek film, this fell down in many areas in my opinion. First off, changing the time-line completely was annoying. I personally would of thought, that having the original crew (After Chekov is suppose to join) trying to stop the time-line being altered would of been a more interesting story, rather than just altering the time line and messing things up.

The film had way too much action and not enough time building the plot or the background of the characters like previous Star Trek films. Spock shouldn't be dating Uhura for one.

Although I found it good as a Sci-fi action film, the constant switching from camera to camera, jumping scenes really quick was too much to keep up with. I actually hope they don't make a sequal to this. I would of preferred another TNG movie, or even a Voyager film.

But still, I wouldn't say to anyone not to watch it. Even if you may have the same opinion as myself it is worth watching and if you've never watched Star Trek before, then you'll probably enjoy it more than people who were bought up with Star Trek.

If it wasn't a Star Trek film I would be giving it 4/5. But seeing as it is a Star Trek film, it gets 2/5.
